Welcome to inUth’s ldigital coverage of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2017’s Match 33 between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SH) and Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) at the I.S. Bindra Stadium in Mohali on April 28. This is the first IPL match of the season 10 at this iconic ground. With just three wins from seven matches, the hosts KXIP would look to turn fortunes around when they take on the defending champions. On the other hand, David Warner-led Sunrisers have won four of their eight games and shared the points with Royal Challengers Bangalore after their battle washed of due to rain on April 25.
For Hyderabad, skipper David Warner, his opening partner Shikhar Dhawan, Moises Henriques, Yuvraj Singh, Naman Ojha, Deepak Hooda will be the key players for this tie. If we talk about the home side, they also have some strong players in their line that can turn the things around in favour of the team. With presence of Hashim Amla, David Miller, Glenn Maxwell, Wriddhiman Saha, Shaun Marsh and all-rounder Axar Patel the team look pretty strong on papers. Inconsistency is the only problem with Kings XI Punjab.
